Here, I did some quick ball animation tests. These were done using Adobe Animate (2019) and the reference I used for inspiration was sourced from YouTube. I found this activity rather simple to do as it was quick and didn’t involve anything complicated. The only thing I did find challenging, however, was figuring out theContinue reading WEEK 7: BALL ANIMATION

This is the first species that I have made within our world. Furthermore, this creature is mostly based on the appearance of mountain goats. I particularly love how mountain goats have a small fringe at the top of their head, thus, I decided to exaggerate this more to make this species look somewhat funky.

Here are two short videos that I have researched into on Youtube. They describe and explain in detail about the deep-sea environment and the creatures that live there.
